Gwenton Sci-tech Repository
GSR is a state of the art learning institution backed by one of the most advanced military tech companies in the world. Their school is a self sufficient, self contained series of buildings complete with their own private, secured servers. Dorms are available on site to allow students and staff the ease of travel from class to class. Each student has a VR set installed in their private dorms. Connecting them to the server in their new avatar body. This is mostly for hanging with other students, shopping, studying, and Gearframe training and maintenance. Each student that logs in spawns in Central City. The main hub for all activities available to students. Outside the city, access to each of the battle maps used in competitions are available to explore and train within their Gearframes. Three bases can be found, one for the Orange Spiders deep in the Swamp battle map and one located within the castle walls of the Medieval battle map.
In addition to training with their Gearframes, students are encouraged to challenge each other in official matches for points. Points that can be used for upgrades for a student's Gearframe, but are also collectively gathered by each faction to fight for the right to be at the top of the hierarchy. Students receive a number of perks related to their ranking. Special privileges that seem to just appear with no known sender.

Factions
To emphasize the strive for a better world, Gwenton divides their student body into three groups. In hopes this would push for friendly competition among the students to incentivize them to work harder; Gwenton has, perhaps unexpectedly, created a ruling hierarchy that has taken over the school. A flawed system that remains in place thanks to the overwhelmingly success it creates; only a few of the school's staff actually remember when all students weren't bound by their colors alone. When their factions represented more than the darkness in their leaders hearts.

Gearframe Styles and Models.
Gearframes come in three styles; Sword, Gun, and Shield. While any gearframe can equip any of the three; their specialty will be in which ever style they choose. Sword style benefiting close combat maneuvers, while Gun style charges and locks on easier. Shield styles known for having the higher defense while sporting more utilitarian options. To complement the styles, each Gearframe is designed with one of six models as a basis of its build. Each with a special Overdrive ability to aid in the virtual world.
